As there are some 74,000 engaged In preaching In the United States this contribution Is Insuffi cient to keep up tho supply. Here and there arc men and women who have never had a col MjjfiJ lege or theological training who are discharging tho duties of tho pulpit, but they nre few compared to those who huvo had the.se ndvantnges, so that virtually the number of as pirants l.i a correct measure of the extent of the minis terial nmhltloti. 'Die principal reaions why the number of candidates for the clergy Is gronlng less relatlrely year by year are that congregations are getting more exacting, that the pay is small ami the occupation the least attractive of the pro fessions. This Is tho seUlsli point of view. Then, tho con scientious wtiident who may be rollglously Inclined and who sees great opportunities for doing good In the calling, some, times Is deterred because he cannot satisfy his conscience of the truth of some of the doctrines of Christianity. Soon er than preach something which a cannot believe in he turns his talents to another calling. Another hindrance la that tho religious unrest, so palpa ble In tho world, In much moro pronounced In the higher halls of learning. Here agnostlcUm, materialism, lndlffer entlsm, arc at work sapping the early religious training and turning the mind In Its formative stage against the pulpit. .Much hnnn Is wrought here by the scoffer and the unbeliever who aro never so happy aa when reviling Christianity uud everything pertaining to 1U mlsslonal advancement. Tho world wan never to generous In It support of Christian churches and charities na It is to-day and no where else Is this extended with the generosity of that of the United States. Yet the disposition to preach Is not keeping nhrenst of tills sentiment. If It were, the candi dates for tho priesthood thU year would number 4,000 or 0,000 Instead of 1,500. Utlcn Globe. The Profit of Good Roads. OW thnt the country la measurably well sup- Nl piled with railroads which haul the farmer's product to market nt nn average rato of a half I ., Airnt n Inti , (nil It li.irltia in m nt nrlnm Importance Unit the average cost of hnullng from the fnnn to the railway station, which Is about twenty-five cents per ton per mile, should bo reduced. Tho Department of Agriculture claims thnt thla cost could b reduced two-thirds by tho simple substitution of good macadamised roads for the ordinary dirt highways now In use. Pennsylvania's now road law, which divides the cost of making permanent roads between the State, county and township, was Inspired by n desire to begin the solution of this problem In n wny thnt would prove least burden some to the farmer themselves. Ho far, howovor, Ita pro visions have not bean taken advantage of aa widely a was anticipated. It seems worth while to call attention to the fact thnt practically similar lawa nre already In opera tion, with excellent results, in New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, California nnd elsewhere. In the BUite like New Jersey, where the law baa been in operation longest, the benefits are mnrked. It Is tho first atep that costs, however, in road-making nn In everything else. When a few experimental sections of really good highways have been provided as object les sons, It Is to be hoped thnt Pennsylvania fanners will fall In lino with thoao of other States, whore permanent road lawa hnvo been longer In force.

Thus we learn that In 1000 there ware lpJ '-.1120.000 men of tho age of 21 or over who IcJkJJMJI were nimble to read or wrlto. This great lagjtfeuulnriny of Illiterates constituted 11 per cent of inn yuuuk auriiitiii ui uiv iikiiuii nil viuuiumia In Itself surtlclently strong, If snltnbly distributed, to de termine national principles nnd pollclos. Of the total 077,000 were negroes and 1,234,000 whites, a percentage which when compared with that of thirty i WOODS INDIANS. T sfftflC'ltf The WikmU Indians, nn Htewart Kd wnrd WhlU calb tho Ojlbwayu and Woods Oruos north of Uiko Superior, nro distinctly nomadic. They search out now trapping grounds and now Iltdierles, they pay vUlts, nnd soem even to enjoy travel for Uio sjtko of exploration. This life, says the author of 'The Korea!," Inevitably develops mid foster an expertneM of woodcraft almost beyond bollef. Another phase of this almost perfect correspondence to euviroumunt is the readiness with which au Indlau will int'ot an emergency. We are accus tomed to rely tlrst of nil on the skilled liilnir of soma ono we can hire; second, if wo undertake the Job oursolre-s, on the tools mndo for us by skilled lubor; and third, on tho shops to supply us with the mnterlnls we need. Hardly once in n lifetime nre wo thrown en tirely on our own reeourcos. Then we bungllugly improvise a umkoshlft. The WooiU Indian poascues his knife and his light nx. He never Im provises makeshifts. No matter what the exigency or how complicated the demand, his experience answers with nccurncy. Utensils and tools he knows exactly where to find. His Job Is neat and workmanlike, whether it is the construction of a bark receptacle, water-tight or not; the making of a pair of snow shoos, the repairing of a badly emnshed canoe, the building of a shel ter, or tho fashioning of a paddVe. About noon one day Tawablnisay broke his ax-helve square off. This to us would have been a serious affair. Probably if left to ourstdves, we should have stuck In some sort of a rough handle made of a straight sapling, which would hav aiuworvd well enough until we could have bought an other, lly the time we had cooked dinner that Indlau had fashioned an other helve. We compared it with a manufactured helve. It was aa well shaped, as smooth, as nlcoly balanced. Iu fact, aa we laid the now and the old side by side, we could not havo selected, from any evidence of the workmanship, which had ben made by machlue and which by hand. Tawablniaay then burned out the wood from the ax, re tempered the stoel, Mt the new helve, and wedged it ueatly with ironwood wedge. Tn whole affair, includiug the catting of the timber, consumed perhaps half an hour. Editor Great Papers on Important Subjects. A..A.A.AAAAA.AAAA.A.A.1aVA A. A. A. .A. A.

Facta the Japan Learned Refore Owning Hostilities. The care taken by the Japanese to make sure that they were right before going abend Is shown by tho fact that, previous to the war with Russia, they took the greatest pnlus to ascertain the actunl value as u fighting force of the much vaunted Cossack cavalry, says the army and nary register. The conclusion wns, to use the languago of the Jnpnneso ottlclal from whom we obtain this Information, that they were "a mere bugaboo." It was found that the custom of the Ilusslau gov erumout wns to furnish each Cossack in Manchuria with a fixed sum for the purchase of a horse. One-half of this sum he put Into his pocket nnd pur chased Uie host horso ho could with the remainder. The money given for the purvihaso of fodder was treuted In the same way and the horse left to pick up a living aa best he could. The result was shown in a serious deterioration in the efficiency of the Cossacks. Similar dishonesty was prevalent in the other departments of Russian army administration, an Illus tration of which Is found in the story of the, Russian officer found guilty of selling powder to the Chinese and putting sand in Its place. The Japanese even assert Hut the number of troop under th command of Kouropatkln was 'misrepresented, so that money might be mad by draw ing supplies for fictitious warriors. To make fall allowance for contingencies' the Japanese estimated the number of Russlaus they would encounter on the Yatu a 40,000 In all and ivnt 00,000 troops against them. It was found in the end that the Russians bad only 80,000 men to oppose the crossing of 1 tne nver. urooaryn Eagle.

Sgg) T Sees";.' 1 MgMMpiieJ year before shows up to the maalfest dkaadvaatage f the dominant race. Thus In 1870 the excess of illiterate negroes over Illiterate whites was 00,000, while now, thirty years I a tar, the Jattsr outnumber the former by 277,000. Nor can we justly retort thnt tlicso Illiterate whites are aliens dumped upon our shores through the agency of im migration. Of tho total nnmber of whits lllltsratos only 605,000 nre foreign born, while the native bom number 088,000, or nn excess of 110,000. Nor is tills tins worst of It. The report shows that the percentage of Illiterates among the native born sons of American parents is nearly three times as great as among tho nntlve born sons of foreign parents. Evidently our foreign horn cltleens hnvo a higher appreciation of the advantages of education than ranny of the native stock. At no time In our history has the percentage of Hilt erntes been us great ns to-day. During the pnt sixty years the percentage of this class of citizens has Increased from 0.15 to 0.00, despite our free school system and the earnest efforts to popularise education. The State having the largest number of Illiterates Is Georgia, ns might be expected, with Its great nngro population nnd its lnrge number of struggling whites. Pennsylvania Is noxt, having 1311,082 Illiterates, as compared with 158,247 for Georgia. The percentage of illiterates among the native born votora of New Mexico la 25. Utlca Globe. The Disappearance of tho Male Teacher. O one will deny that many of the beat school teachers in the country are women. There aro parts of the delicate and highly important task of training the young which can boat be dono by tactful and gentle women. But it la also the serious opinion of experts that grow ing boys should very largely be under the care of men. Thoro is a certain Inspiration of mnnly leader ship which a boy grastiy needs, and which he can only get from a manly man. Tho Influence of a thoroughly robust school teacher upon his class of boys cannot bo calculated. He puts before them constnutly a model of manliness, and high honor, and attractive Industry, and clean courage, which leaves Its stamp upon their forming minds through all tho rest of their lives. The generation of boys which must always go to school to women, nnd to no one eleo, will lose something very valuable out of their school-day training They may got ns much arithmetic nnd grnmmnr nnd history nnd the rest of It from the women ns from the men, but they can no moro get tho (innllty of manliness from women thnn they cnu got the quality of refinement from men. Our schools should be "manned" with mon ns well ns women, and If we havo permitted the tlnnnclal attractions of the profession to fall so far behind the Increasing attractions of compotltivo callings as to nllow all the young men to be drawn awny from this profession, we have been guilty of a serious betrayal of trust to the generation which is now growing up. Our fathers did not so misuse us. Montreal Star, Wireless Telegraphy In War. HE question of the value of wirsless telegra phy In wnr has already been considered. Now It is supplemented by that of its legality. The Russian Government has practically ssrved no- that It regards It as Illegal At any rate, use of such a device at the seat of war will be treated ns a breach of neutrality. Corre spondents telegraphing without wires will bo shot as spies, and vessels equlppod with wireless telegraphic apparatus venturing near the scene of war will, if caught, be con fiscated ns contraband of war. So far an correspondents accompanying the Russian army nro concerned, we may unhesitatingly coucede tho Ilusslnn tho right of censorship. That Is a matter of courso. A belligerent power has the undoubted right to decide whether it will permit corre spondents to accompany Its nrmy at all and If It does let them do so It enn, of course, prescribe whnt mntter they may send through the llticj, and how. Similarly, It mny exercise a consorshlp over news vessels entering its terri torial waters, or the waters Implicated in the sphere of belligerent action, nut n general outlawing of wireless telegraphy in thnt part of the world would be a much more extreme matter New York Tribune. ALMOST IMPATIENT. WWVWiW. When n Mississippi River steamboat hns pnssed Cairo, bound down, there Is no opportunity to obtain deck-hamU till Memphis Is reached. Consequent ly tho colored roustabouts have things all their own way tu thnt short space. On n recent trip the passengers came on deck nt Hickman, ICy to find the stenmer lying Idle, and tho crew re posing peacefully on boxes and bales on deck, and on the sloping bank. "What's the matter?" some one ask ed the captain. "Nigger struck for two hours' rest," he replied, pntloutly. After many vexatious delay the ves sel renched Cnruthersvllle, Mo., ami there It lay In Idleness the next morn ing when tho passengers came out. "What's wrong?" agnln asked oue passenger. "Niggers struck for bread-rolls for breakfast. Bay they're tired of hard tack," said the otilcer, still without vexation, A third morning the awakening pas sengers found their vessel again moor ed by the riverside, this Urn at Bar field, Ark. On the bank were) the roust abouts, holding a noisy meeting, "Strike again?" asked a passenger. "No, sh," replied the captain, "but there's going to be. The nigger are up on the bank, tryln' to decide what they'll strike for next. I'm right cross at 'em, though, and f they don't agree pretty soon I'm going to cut and leave 'em, and deliver my freight on the way back." 8onm AwuHiusnt Uohemea. Tho railway companies of the coun try are engaged In all kind of amuse ment schemes, with the idea of attract ing patronage, and the latest Innova tion of this character ha taken place In Cleveland, where the manager of a street railway company ha organised a baseball league.

The railway company ha supplied the uni forms and offered other substantial as sistance beside undertaking to carry the player free to and from the game.
